The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2026 by Memoirs Of A Perfume Collector, California Love is a vibrant aromatic fruity fragrance crafted by perfumer David Chieze. The composition opens with the bright zest of citrus and tropical fruits like passionfruit and orange, leading to a heart that balances green freshness and sweet mojito notes. The base layers in musky warmth with musk and ambroxan, providing a lush and comforting finish. This fragrance captures the essence of sun-kissed days and vibrant outdoor living.

How to wear it

California Love projects well with its bright citrus top notes, so one or two sprays are sufficient for the day. The tropical fruit notes will gradually give way to a warmer musky base, making it an ideal scent for daytime activities where you want a fresh, lively presence.
